Hi,

is there a way to plot with style "with boxes" and RGB variable color? I 
have a data file like this:

1      88    #FF0000
2      65    #00FF00
3      92    #0000FF
...

and I tried the following:

plot 'boxes.dat' u 1:2:3 w boxes lc rgbcolor variable

"boxes.gp", line 7: warning: Skipping data file with no valid points

The same happens when I try to give the style an expected third column 
as box width info:

plot 'boxes.dat' u 1:2:(0.8):3 w boxes lc rgbcolor variable

The gnuplot manual 4.6 says that "with boxes" is compatible with 
rgbcolor variable, but there is no example how to do it. Any hints?
